Hi.
When I take out TypeKey("down arrow") and reassign the script hotkey to
control +d and then run it, this is what happens:
1. Go to the problematic listview.
2. Press home to make sure I am at the top of the list.
3. Press down arrow once followed by control+d to activate the script.
The result is that the highlight bar moves down x number of down arrow
presses. What I am trying to do with the script is to be able to down
arrow and expect that the highlight bar would move with the down arrow.
If this can be done with Jaws then it would be good since there is no
other hope for the listview. Is there a way to do this? It looks like
I'm close since I can do it like this so far.
